Bj Prof. P. B. WiL son, of Baltimore
The discovery of the vast deposit
of fossil bone in South Carolina has
not resulted as it was reasonably
supposed it should, in giving the ag
riculturist a cheap and reliable
source of material for the base ol
artificial fertilizers, viz : phosphoric
acid. Not but that these fossils are
truly rich in “hone phosphate of
lime.” from which manures derive
their value, when properly prepared
and rendered soluble, but from the
careless manner in which they are
thrown upon the market, in not hav
ing the foreign matter removed from
them, thereby deteriorating their v;d
ue for the manufacture of concen
trated fertilizers.
These fossils, when properly wash
ed and cleansed from sand and rntnl,
should yield Irom GO to 65 per c< lit.
of bone phosphate of lime, but as
found in commerce, either in the
ground stale or in bulk, they rarely
yield more than 55, and frequently
under 50 per cent.
Another and far greater difficulty
is their want of solubility; virtually
and chemically speaking, they con
tain their phosphoric acid combined
with lime, precisely in the same
state as in the fresh bones oi the ox,
horse or sheep, while the jhysicat
prope: ties ol the combination is far
different, anil this difference deter*
mines their value for muuuriul pur
poses.
The difference in the physical
properties of bodies—having the
s.nne chemical composition—in re
lation to the same solvents, presents
ilsell almost daily to the chemist, so
that in regard to the solubility or in
solubility of phosphates of lime de
pendent upon the source from which
they arc derived, is not an anomoly.
Fresh bone, either containing or tie-
I rrived of animal mattcl, when fine-
y ground, will after the first year’s
application to the soil, be gradually
dissolved by the rains, and the ga*
seous matter absorbed by the soil,
and supply slowly the needed food
for vegetation, while the same chang
es in the fossil bone, if ever occur*
ring, would be long and tedious, not
repaying.the farmer for the labor
and money he has expended in til*
ling his lands. Even this stale of
superior solubility in recent bone in
comparison to the fossil or mineral
phosphates, has been proven by ex*
pcrience to be inadequate to the de
mand of growing plants, and the sol
ubility of hone needed tube increas
ed.
To produce this change, the nat
ural combination of three parts of
lime to one of phosphoric acid is de
composed with sulphuric acid, which
has greater altiinily for the lime than
the phosphoric acid has; therefore,
sulphuric acid is added in sufficient
quantity to combine with two parts
of ,lime, thus giving a mixture of
gypsum, or ordinary land plaster,
and an exceedingly soluble pirns*
phate, being a combination of one
part of lime, and tw’o of water. This
phosphate, when used ns a tcrtiliz
er, by corning in contact with the
constituents of the soil, may become
more or less insoluble, yet the cohe
sive forces or physical properties ol
the combination arc so slight, in
comparison with that originally of
the bone phosphate, that the rains
and atmospheric influences readily
yield it to vegetation, as it is needed.
Fossil and mineral phosphates are
as applicable, and as valuable, as a
source for the production of the so
luble phosphates, as the natural
bone, with the advantage to the ag
riculturist of not having more than
one-fourth of their market value,
from the unlimited supply in the
vast extent of deposit found in vari
ous parts of the world. This cheap
ness of raw material has been taken
advantage of to a greater or less ex
tent, by large manufacturers, for
substituting the mineral for the ani
mal phosphates, without properly
rendering them soluble, not unfre-
quently claiming for “superphos
phales” a large admixture ol raw
bone when really they contain none,
although the careless and superficial
results of the inexpert chemist may
show large quantities of bone phos*
phate of lime, without stating wheth
er of animal or mineral origin.
It can be readily seen from these
facts that any one choosing a good
article for immediate or future bene
ficial results should not place too
much value upon the insoluble hone
phosphates the fertilizers may con
tain, when the origin is doubtful.
There can be no questioning the
great value of these concentrated
fertilizers, from the favor w ith which
they have been received in Euro
pean countries, where their system
of agriculture is more accurate and
economical titan with us. With their
dense population, every inch of
ground must be made to produce for
ihe army of tonsy tneri in their work
shops and cities, w!m> return bus lit
tie directly to the n p.odnctioti of
the products of the soil.
Again, it must be taken into con
sideration the facility, and with what
comparatively little expense, these
concentrated fertilizers are applied.
A few hundred pounds will suffice
where thousands «>t pounds of sta
ble manure would be required, and
yet when ll e crop is gathered a prof
itable yield has rewarded the agri
culturist therefor. Taking into con
sideration the value of these ptios-
phatic fertilizers, the following sug
gestions in regard to their prepara
tion arc given:
The lossil, or South Carolina phos
phate, as it is usually called, should
be finely ground—that which passes
through a 28 or 30 mesh sieve is
preferable. To 100 pounds of this,
thoroughly moistened with 32 pounds
of water and thrown upon aboard
or clay floor, add 50 pounds of com
mercial sulphuiic acid (of Of* de
grees in strength) slowly, after each
addition, turning the mass until the
whole has been added; then thor
oughly incorporate the mixture un
til every particle of the solid matter
has come in contact with the acid,
to insure its conversion into soluble
phosphate. During the addition of
the acid a violent chemical action
lakes place; the vapor of water
mixed with gases resulting from the
destruction of some animal matter
that these phosphates still retain
passes off*.
Two cautious are given above :
first, in regard to the fineness of the
phosphate; second, that it should be
thoroughly moistened with a given
quantity of water. These are abso
lutely necessary f>r successful man
ipulation. If in too coarse a powder,
and the acid is used too strong, the
moment they come in contact, and
in the act of the liberation of the phos
phoric acid, an impervious coaling
of sulphate of lime or gypsum is
formed, effectually resisting any
further action of the sulphuric acid
in rendering that portion of the un-
decornposed material soluble imme
diately under this coaling. The
gypsum having a great affinity for
water, it is absolutely necessary to
have the sulphuric acid so fardiluted
that there will he a slight excess of
moisture to keep the gypsum in a
plastic condition m til complete de
composition has taken place. As
thus prepared, this superphosphate
will contain in the moist condition
12 per cent, ol soluble phosphoric
acid, but ii ocacsionally stirred, or
opened out to dry, it will he increas
ed to 14 per cent and he in a pulver
ulent condition, to be mixed with
one-half or two-thirds of muck, hu
mus matter, ashes, raw bone, or oth
er available material.
Bone is converted into superphos
phate by the same manner of man
ipulation, hut the quantity ofsulphu
ric acid is reduced to 45 pounds, and
the water to 27 pounds—as hone,
on an average, does not contain over
54 per cent, of hone phosphate of
lime.—American Farmer.
for a successful result. The second
tn.-thod in which thoroughly’ dried
earth or road dus' is used as an ah
sm heut of redundant moisture, is a
safe mode, where other circumstan
ces are favorable; but as suitable
cellars arc infrequently to he found
in our land, and as outhouses are
not always to he relied on for the
saleix ol such contents, that method
cannot he recommended f >r general
practice. The third method will
rarely bring a crop salelr through
the winter, and only in a very fa
vorable seasons. The fourth is prac
ticed with great success by farmers
in tire mountain regions of Tennes
see and some other States, who have
access to naturally formed caves.—
The filth plan is excellent, and where
a suitable ateep side-hill is so near

BT A. C. VAN EPPS—ATLANTA, GA.
Any process for saving the Irish
potato should commence immediate
ly alter digging the crop. A single
hours exposure to the sun inducer
early decay and loss. The external
moisture is so slight that it is of little
consequence, whatever method may
he resorted to for t Leir preservation
may be briefly recited as follows;
each of which has its advocate :
Various Methods in Practice.
1. Placing in banks or hills, as
w.tli the sweet polaloc, covering
with dry straw and earth, and shel
tering from rain.
2. Storing in a dry cellar or out
house, out ef danger of frost; the
inlerspaces in the hulk being filled
up with dry earth or dust, gathered
up from a dusty road elsewhere, and
the top covered with a few inches of
the same mrtcria).
3. Packing in barrels with suita
ble holes cut m the sides to facilitate
the evaporation of excess of mois
ture ; the barrels stored under shel
ter and out of the reach of frost.
4. Storing in natural caves where
the grower has access to such a con
venience and covered with dry
straw, mouth of the cave being closed
sufficiently to exclude beasts, but
left open enough for the free admis
sion of air.
5. Storing in an artificial cave or
cellar dug into the side of a hill;
the top or ceiling supported by logs
or hewed limber, when necessary ;
for opening being left under thedoor
an the free admission of air, and a
funnel or flue through the top for the
escape of vitiated air.
The principles which should guide
the grower in saving the potato are
these : The temperature should be
straw of a thickness of at least three
inches when packed down should
be placed underneath, and a cover
ing of the same material of at least
six inches when packed should be
placed over all from bottom to lop,
alter which the surrounding earth
should lie placed on the pile to a
depth at least ten inchrs, commenc
ing at the bottom with the full thick
ness, and carrying it up as in build
ing a wall; otlierw ise, if the earth be
thrown nt one on the top it will dis
place the straw. Alter completing
the cone, an opening should he made
down to the straw on the top, or a
block or a stone may first he laid on
the straw to he afterwards removed.
This is Ibr trie purpose of greater
ventilation until thesweating process
is completed. About ten clays alter,
this opening should be closed. As
many as filly bushels may he placed
in a bank, but a less quantity is to
be preferred. As soon as the bank
is completed it should be secuiely
covered Irom rain and sun, but lefi
open all around fora free circulation
of air. Any leak in the roof will
cause decay or sprouting, or both.
Thoroughly dry pine straw answers
a good purpose when other straw is
at hand.
Planting the Second Crop.
It is needles* to undertake the
planting of a second crop unless the
first was of some one of the early
varieties, arid which had been plan
ted early, say not later than the ear
ly part of March. The most desira
ble variety for this purpose that has
been cultivated to any considerable
extent in the South is the Early Hose,
and it is the best variety for all pur
poses yet introduced. It is of good
size, fine form, extrerneiy productive,
and its quality for table use unsur
passed. It will grow in any soil
adapted to the potato, but the best
soil yields the he*l return in propor
tion to labor or money expended.—
The special manures for the Irish
potato ar« ammonia and potash. If
the land lobe planted needs fertiliz
ing matter, some lorrn of it contain
ing these ingredients should he chos
en ; The bsc of fresh stable mature
for the second crop should h« avoid
ed, although it may be safely used
in abundance for the first crop early
in the season, if it be at first covered
at least three inches in depth in the
trench or hill before the seed is
dropped. In this case no additional
fertilizer is needed for the second crop
but lime and ashes, if used, will aid
much in making available the fertil
izing matter left from the stable lit
ter of the first crop.
Time of Planting the Second Crop.
The writer has tested this year
these two modes of planting for a
second crop:
1st. Planting at once on digging
the first crop in June, \v hen the vines
of the Early Rose were dry and the
tubers in full maturity. The large
were cut into quarters and halves
and the smaller planted whole, and
on the same ground from which they
were dug.
2nd. Another poition were re
moved to an outhouse with complete
ventilation, the bulk spread out in a
few inches in thickness and dasled
over with slacked lime to dry up ex
ternal moisture. These were kept
for about four weeks and planted on
the 15lh of July in well prepared
trenches. At that time a few had
sprouted very slightly.—Rural South
erner.
A Thought for Boys.—A great
many boys complain that there are
no places. Perhaps it is hard to gel
such a< you like. But when you get
a place—and there are places—this
big country, we are sure, has need
ef every good boy and girl, and man
and woman in it—when you get a

We keep the best of every thing in our line, ar.d will be sure to please

The past season has been the most unfavorable one fin Fertilizers since the general introduc
tion of them into the Stales of Gc trgia nud South Carolina. In the early Spiiug it was much
too wet, the grass and weeds getting* powerful start, while later on, and V>heii the plant was
generally in a most promising condition, therec tine, at a most critical time, a severe drought,
which cut down the yie’d of the crop very materially- Yet with ail these disadvantages, we
believe that there are very few instances, out of the th"u ands where Whaim’s was used, where
t fail«d to pay the planter a profit on ilscost. in ihe eitr.i yield o'er aud above tha natural pro
